Possible raised beach sea cave.

But no cave was spotted at this location on 2 June 24 by Chris Scaife. He did find a cave 30 m away (see Aoineadh nam Muc 1A), so if there is one here, one would have expected him to have seen it.

Alternative Names: None recorded.

Notes: 30 m accuracy from a 6"/10k scale map is fairly good. Almost certainly the same cave.
